Looking for realistic final height predictions based on detailed context.
Current stats:
Height: 5'11
Weight: 140 lb
Build: very lean (~28” waist)
Wingspan: ~6’1
Inseam: ~33”
Long limbs relative to frame
Additional proportions:
Shoe size: men’s 11.5
Hand length (palm to tip of middle finger): ~7.4 inches
Hand span (pinky to thumb stretched): ~8.6 inches
Growth timeline (with ages):
Sep 2023 (age 12.5): ~5'3
Feb 2024 (age 12.9): ~5'7 (very underweight ~84 lb)
Feb 2025 (age 13.9): ~5'10
May 2026 (age 15.1): 5'11
So ~8 inches gained from late 2023 to early 2025, then slowed over the past ~1+ year.
PHV (estimated):
Likely late 2023 → early 2024 (around age 12.5–13) based on rapid growth (~4 inches in ~5 months)
Weight history:
Underweight before and during peak growth
Now 140 lb at 5'11
Diet (current):
Breakfast: cereal + whole milk
School: ~500 kcal lunch + snacks (bear paw + cookies)
Dinner: chicken or tuna + rice/pasta/potatoes
~4 cups whole milk daily
Now in a calorie surplus (previously under-eating)
Activity:
~9k steps/day average
Just starting hypertrophy training
Sleep:
~6–8 hours/night
Family:
Father: 6'1
Mother: 5'4
Ethnicity: Amhara Ethiopian
Birth weight: 8 lbs
Questions:
Based on this timeline and PHV timing, how much height is realistically left?
Does the slowdown from age 13.9 → 15.1 suggest I’m near final height?
Could being underweight during PHV have limited growth?
Do proportions (wingspan > height, limb length, hands/feet) suggest more growth left?
Looking for realistic estimates, not overly optimistic answers.
